Hi,
I really appreciate your concern, fissure can be managed with medicine (Medically) but that would not be the cure of this, it can only gives some relief for time being, in very rare condition it may cured with conservative measurement, like relive the constipation, and it is the only best option one can have if the constipation is not there then fissure could healed but it is not the case all the time and surgery is the best option for this, once the fissure managed with surgery then second step is to reduce the constipation and it can be relieved with drinking more water, and eating more fiber containing diet,
Hope this information helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Akhtarhusain Shaikh
